Do you have a warrant for your arrest in Stanislaus County or anywhere in California? Do you need specific information about a court case in which you, a friend or relative might be involved in? A good place to start is with the California Superior Court.

In Stanislaus County and all courts in California, most criminal defendants have a constitutional right to pretrial release on bail, with exceptions for certain capital and violent felony cases. Recent California Supreme Court rulings make it clear that judges must consider a defendant's ability to pay when setting bail, and cannot keep someone in jail just because they can't afford it unless no less restrictive option would protect public safety or ensure they return to court. Judges, when setting bail, also cannot take into account whether the defendant wants a jury trial or not. Rule 4.101.

The easiest way to find out an offender's bail in Stanislaus County Public Safety Center is to call the jail at 209-525-5630, however as long as you know the crime your inmate has been arrested for (or been accused of), you can look up the bail schedule for Stanislaus County yourself. This county accepts cash, a surety bond or a property bond. 

The Stanislaus County Public Safety Center is licensed for 1069 inmates at any given time, yet it is often forced to make room for many more offenders, especially on weekends. Most city and county jails in California turn over at least 35-40% of their population monthly, another 25-30% every 90 days, and another 15-20% every six months. Approximately 8-9% remain incarcerated between six and twelve months. Inmates who stay beyond twelve months are usually facing serious charges like rape or murder. Because those cases take longer to prepare for trial, offenders arrested in this county stay in custody at one of the Stanislaus County facilities much longer.

Every year Stanislaus County law enforcement agencies arrest and detain approximately 35,300 offenders.
